    THE SMART GRID IN ASIA

    New Business Opportunities in Asian Smart Grids
    July 20 2010 NanoMarkets

    "The development and expenditures on Smart Grid-related projects in Asia are already impressive. Nonetheless, even after massive power sector reforms, China, India and other Asian nations still face shortages in electric power…[World] electricity generation is projected to increase by 77 percent from 2006 to 2030. But the Asian countries will increase generation by 200% over that period. So the need for grid improvements is increasing.

    "China has embarked on a 10-year project to build a "Smart Grid" that will catapult its power transmission into the digital age, securing electricity supplies and boosting energy conservation. The Government of India…[is] strengthening & upgrading…the Indian transmission and distribution network…[with] an investment of US $ 10 billion over a five year span. The Japanese trade ministry has estimated the shift to renewable power will require a grid upgrade at a cost of between US$ 51 Billion and US$74 Billion by 2030. Korea aims to create a nationwide Smart Grid by 2030 for an electricity market worth US$ 60 Billion."

[But the] general consensus [is] that existing electricity grids in Asia are not sufficient…"

    "…[B]ecause of growing environmental concerns, Asian grids needs to become far more flexible than they are today, accommodating distributed power generation from renewable sources and use several energy-efficiency techniques.

    "…NanoMarkets/Smart Grid Analysis believes that Asia, offers huge potential for suppliers of Smart Grids technology, systems and software…[T]he key drivers for Smart Grids…[are] environmental concerns, enhanced grid reliability and security, need to integrate renewable energy…[and the] need to upgrade existing facilities to meet demographic changes…"
